Expected difficult tracheal intubation: a prospective comparison of direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy in 200 patients.
BACKGROUND The Berci-Kaplan video laryngoscope was developed to improve the visualization of the glottis and ease tracheal intubation. Whether this technique is also effective in patients with an expected difficult intubation is unclear. We have prospectively evaluated the conditions and success rate of tracheal intubation in patients with a Mallampati score of III or IV. METHODS Two hundred ...
متن کاملRetrograde light-guided laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation: clinical practice and comparison with conventional direct laryngoscopy.
BACKGROUND Tracheal intubation with conventional laryngoscopy requires many trials until beginners are sufficiently skilled in intubating patients safely. To facilitate intubation, the authors used retrograde light-guided laryngoscopy (RLGL) and compared its feasibility with conventional direct laryngoscopy (DL). METHODS Twenty operators participated in a prospective, randomized, open-label, ...
متن کاملComplications of rigid laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation.
To the Editor: We read with great interest the article of Lee JJ et al. that describes two complications of tracheal intubation in a neonate. We believe, however, that these two complications could have been avoided if the following precautions and techniques were used. (1) Tracheal intubation was achieved after three esophageal intubations. It was not mentioned if the esophageal intubation was...
متن کامل[Difficult laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation: observational study].
INTRODUCTION Since anesthesia complications associated with unexpected difficult airway are potentially catastrophic, they should be avoided. The modified Mallampati test and jaw-thrust maneuver enable the identification of difficult airway. The aim of this study was to associate the modified Mallampati test and the jaw-thrust maneuver with laryngoscopy (Cormack-Lehane) in an attempt to identif...
متن کاملBody Posture during Simulated Tracheal Intubation: Comparison of the Effects of Video Laryngoscopy and Direct Laryngoscopy
Tracheal intubation is an important procedure in anesthesia and emergency medicine. The standard intubation technique is direct laryngoscopy using a Macintosh blade; however, video laryngoscopy has become common and research has shown several advantages of video laryngoscopy over direct laryngoscopy. In the present study we investigated whether video laryngoscopy resulted in the intubating pers...
